Blog client becomes a blog coach!
Last week client, Sital Ruparelia, 6 Figure Career Management Coach, sent me this email:
I answered a question on how to increase traffic on blog and just ‘won’ the ‘best answer’. Take a look and see how far the student of the blog coach, is now a teacher himself!
I am already so proud of him for consistently blogging and getting his blogsites to the top of Google’s lists asap! But the article he wrote put smile on my face that made my cheeks hurt!
Here it is for you to read and enjoy:
Question: How are you taking advantage of your blog?
I’m a fairly new blogger so by no means an expert – but here are some things I do to promote my blog
I use the word ‘promote’ loosely as the emphasis is on offering value and building relationships rather than ‘promoting’ as such.
1. Write interesting, relevant content that is of value (the obvious one).
2. Adding comments of value on other blogs read by my target audience.
3. Answering questions on LinkedIn and other sites similar sites.
4. Writing guest articles and blog posts for other sites and publications.
5. Guest speaking.
6. Post articles with links to relevant articles on other blogs (Google likes this and rewards you with more traffic).
7. Use Word Press as a playtform (Again very google friendly – my content is on Google as soon as I publish a blog post).
8. Review stats to see where traffic comes from, key words used etc.
9. Use some of these key words on future blog posts.
10. Use numbers on titles of articles “10 Tips, 5 steps, 3 ways” etc to encourage people to read.

I love reading everything that is on your site! You has such a great sense of humor and you share so much for free–a sign of an excellent coach! Thanks for sharing his list. I already had some of those points written down from reading your other blogs and listening to your free why blog teleclass. Where is it that folks can listen to it???
I ordered your book? Where is it?? I am eagerly awaiting it and your wordpress packages. I am ready to boogie and blog! –Lauree
